This question arrived in the email bag this morning. Any insight from our resident sleuths?"Hi,I've just recently come on to this site while searching family ancestry. My great-grandfather settled from England to Detroit and I have located in the U.S. Cities Directory for Detroit that he lived at 146 and later at 172 Porter [[7th at 135). In addition, he worked as a cook at the Wayne Hotel [[known dates from 1893-1895. I was searching for images of this hotel, but as of yet no luck. Would you be able to provide any guidance on where I can view 172 Porter and also the Wayne Hotel?
I live in the UK now, and at some point want to come to Detroit to do some more records search. Any help you can provide would be great.
Thank you."
